|
|
|
|
Docspell is designed as a REST server that uses JSON to exchange
|
|
data. The REST api can be used to integrate docspell into your
|
|
workflow.
|
|
|
|
[Docspell REST Api Doc](openapi/docspell-openapi.html)
|
|
|
|
The "raw" `openapi.yml` specification file can be found
|
|
[here](openapi/docspell-openapi.yml).
|
|
|
|
The routes can be divided into protected and unprotected routes. The
|
|
unprotected, or open routes are at `/open/*` wihle the protected
|
|
routes are at `/sec/*`. Open routes don't require authenticated access
|
|
and can be used by any user. The protected routes require an
|
|
authenticated user.
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
The unprotected route `/open/auth/login` can be used to login with
|
|
account name and password. The response contains a token that can be
|
|
used for accessing protected routes. The token is only valid for a
|
|
restricted time which can be configured (default is 5 minutes).
|
|
|
|
New tokens can be generated using an existing valid token and the
|
|
protected route `/sec/auth/session`. This will return the same
|
|
response as above, giving a new token.
|
|
|
|
This token can be added to requests in two ways: as a cookie header or
|
|
a "normal" http header. If a cookie header is used, the cookie name
|
|
must be `docspell_auth` and a custom header must be named
|
|
`X-Docspell-Auth`.
|
|
|
|
## Live Api
|
|
|
|
Besides the statically generated documentation at this site, the rest
|
|
server provides a swagger generated api documenation, that allows
|
|
playing around with the api. It requires a running docspell rest
|
|
server. If it is deployed at `http://localhost:7880`, then check this
|
|
url:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
http://localhost:7880/app/doc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
These examples use the great command line tool
|
|
[curl](https://curl.haxx.se/).
|
|
|
|
